Abstract
These documents are the results of the third (2010), fourth (2011), and fifth (2012) annual Traffic Safety Culture Index. The purpose of the survey was to provide up-to-date information about driver perceptions on key behaviors such as impaired driving, distracted driving, vulnerable road users, and other topics of concern for stakeholders. The data was collected annually using a nationally representative, probability-based survey of U.S. residents 16 years of age and older. Key results from respective years are listed below:
A key finding from this survey was nearly 3 of every 4 Americans agreed they would benefit if the government were to give more attention to traffic safety issues. There was strong support for several proposed safety initiatives.
